dc.description.abstractWaste from non-biodegradable materials is sorted in waste sorting units to produce dry recyclables raw materials, leading to direct access and exposure of workers to waste and its contaminants. The organic residues present in waste serve as a substrate for numerous microorganisms, increasing workers’ exposure to microbial contaminants, with previous studies associating health risks with these environments. In Portugal, mechanical protection gloves (MPG) are of mandatory use. During their use, sweat is released, and, consequently, the humidity of the material increases. Additionally, the temperature inside the glove leads to conditions favorable to the growth of microorganisms. This study intends to assess the bioburden present in MPG and discuss the possibility to be considered as potential passive sampling methods to assess occupational exposure to microbial contamination.pt_PT
